Never Seen That Kind Before!

We were taking the shortcut from the front door of Mr. Pitt's condo to my car, and walking underneath one of the trees, he suddenly stopped walking.

With his cane, he starting poking or pointing at something on the ground, and said with joy, "oooh! Looks like the flowers are blooming! Hmm...I've never seen that kind before."

It was a pine cone.


...I'll give him a little credit, though. The pine cone was kind of green?
